Bite

(album: Permanent Way - 2019)

Keep hearing fear in your voice, it's troubling me
Too near to the edge, much closer than I've been
Pull back a step before you throw your stone
They often see you stumble, the scene you want

If it's you
If it's us
If it's real
It's enough

You said you won't come following me
I said I don't know what to believe
I won't say, I won't say you called
I won't say anything at all
Just do what they don't
I can give you the most of anything you want

Stone cold faces let you keep
Poisoning your blood
Cut you open and you'll see
Poison in your blood

Take what they will
And do with it what they want
I made no sense of it
And I'm glad it's done
It's hard to believe
It was here all alone
They took the best of it and left me with none

The stone cold friends that let you keep
Poisoning your blood
The same friends knock you when they need
Poison in your blood
Stone cold faces let you keep
Poisoning your blood
Cut you open and you'll see
Poison in your blood
